It is the supreme art of the teacher to awaken joy in creative expression and knowledge.

The artist who aims at perfection in everything achieves it in nothing.

Every artist dips his brush in his own soul, and paints his own nature into his pictures.

Without freedom, no art art lives only on the restraints it imposes on itself, and dies of all others.

Art is a step from what is obvious and well-known toward what is arcane and concealed.

Vision is the art of seeing what is invisible to others.

An artist is always alone - if he is an artist. No, what the artist needs is loneliness.

An artist is not paid for his labor but for his vision.

A guilty conscience needs to confess. A work of art is a confession.

The essence of all beautiful art, all great art, is gratitude.
